Brand-spanking new Glacier Park photos are finally here!

Majestic Chief Mountain towers over Glacier Park's northeast corner near Canada. It is a Glacier Park high spot, at 9080 feet.

Here's a lonely mountain goat waiting for visitors. He's at the Overlook, high above Hidden Lake.

The Highline Trail gives hikers a relatively easy walk through Alpine meadows hundreds of feet above the Going To The Sun Road.

If you look closely, you can see Lake McDonald lying in that distant valley between the peaks on this sunny midday.

Directly above the Highline Trail is the Garden Wall and Bishop's Cap. This is just to the west of the Continental Divide and Logan Pass.
 

As you can probably see, Glacier Park, Montana is one of my favorite places in the whole world. Here's a few more of the pictures I took up there recently.

Logan Pass and Bird Woman Falls just west of the continental divide: It was still pretty early in the season.

McDonald Creek and some wildflowers on the bank, near the park's west entrance: The water really is this blue.

Here's some bear grass up close. You have to look quick... because it has usually disappeared by midsummer.

Wild Goose Island on Glacier's east side. This place is so picturesque, almost every visitor snaps a picture or two.

Trick Falls is located along the road to Two Medicine Lake. The water disappears underground only to reappear at the falls.

After a July snowstorm in the Logan Pass Visitor Center parking lot. Not a lot of folks hung around for the encore.
 

And... after many weeks of my being lazy, here are those promised pictures of my current residence, new (used) car, and the radio toys:

The mountains that are my constant companions: As seen along the road on the daily drive home.

Here's the yard to the north of my new place. It's a sort of pastoral scene to start the day with.

The yard to the south of the place is just as nice. The mountains got fifty feet of snow this year.

The "new" KB-mobile: This one is a blast to drive and difficult to keep below 75 MPH!

After-hours pleasure center: The more things change, the more they stay about the same.

And a river runs through it, too: Just a few hundred yards to the south... Who could ask for much more?

My place, as seen from a satellite, a couple hundred miles straight up: Cool! I can even find my way home from outer space!
 

And some pictures of my former residence, my old car and of course the radio stuff, too:

The road to Shangri-La:  This is sometimes more than a challenge in winter.

The KB-mobile: A 1984 Toyota with 170,000 miles and counting!

Ain't no place like it: HOME.

Another point of view: But still just as nice a few degrees to the northwest.

KB's radio toys: Japan Radio NRD-535D receiver and NVA-319 speaker, ICOM R-7100 receiver, homebrew antenna tuner, generic early-80s ghetto blaster.

More radio toys: JPS ANC-4 and NIR-12 noise reduction units, Universal M-400 RTTY decoder, hybrid 200 MHz Windows NT computer system.

Take a look out my front window: It's tough to see it, but the famous 1400' wire antenna is partially visible in this shot.
